News, insights and updates from the Adobe Primetime team on TV delivery and monetization across IP‐connected screens

Archive for January, 2014

2013 was a busy year for Adobe Primetime, from bringing the full solution to market to building on customer and partner momentum. We’ve hit the ground running in 2014 with some exciting news on the horizon, and we’re thrilled to announce that Adobe Primetime was just named a 2014 SIIA Content CODiE Award winner in the “Best Video Platform for Media & Publishers” category.

During the past 28 years, the Software & Information Industry Association (SIIA) CODiE Awards have recognized more than 1,000 software and information companies for achieving excellence. The CODiE Awards are the only peer-recognized program in the content, education, and software industries. There were 91 finalists across 26 categories for the SIIA Content CODiE Awards representing the information industry’s best products, technologies, and services created by or for media, publishers, and information services providers. SIIA’s rigorous judging, evaluation and voting process is explained here.

Adobe Primetime’s CODiE Award win validates the innovation, vision and industry impact we’re delivering as we extend TV beyond the living room and bring it to every IP-connected screen. We’re giving programmers and cable operators the ability to stream, protect, analyze and monetize video across desktops and devices. It’s an honor to be recognized by SIIA alongside so many innovative players in the software industry.

We’d also like to congratulate our fellowAdobe Marketing Cloudwinners in the following Content CODiE Award categories:

Adobe Primetime DRM recently launched a cloud-based deployment option to complement the on-premises solution. All major studios have approved apps and services that use Adobe’s DECE-approved DRM, which provides an easy-to-deploy, end-to-end DRM solution integrated with the Adobe Primetime Player SDKs. Adobe now offers the ability to run the same DRM-protected video stream on all Adobe Primetime enabled platforms, including desktops (see demo), iOS, Android, Roku, and Xbox — with more to come. The single publishing and monetization workflow leads to significantly lower operational costs.
